your box should stick 1/2" beyond the plastic so that it ends up flush when you add the drywall (adjust depth for different boarding materials) so just tape the poly to the outside of the box if you'd like. It's not great since those boxes are really leaky through the openings for the wires, but it's better then nothing.

Add in one of those foam gaskets to seal across the front and the last major holes are through the outlet itself. You can get outlets with sliding covers for child protection or just use those plastic safety plugs if you want to go that far.
